A Lesson from Cambridge University: 'All White People Are Racist'
American Thinker.com ^ | August 2, 2017 | Paul Austin Murphy

Posted on 08/02/2017 9:14:00 AM PDT by Kaslin

A black student at Cambridge University has just said that “all white people are racist”. (This was in response to Saturday's riots in Dalston, east London.) His name is Jason Osamede Okundaye. He's also the President of the Black and Minority Ethnic society at the University.

Okundaye wrote:

The other fantastically ironic thing is that he also claimed that “middle-class white people” have “colonised” Dalston. In full:

Of course, if white people had claimed that Dalston was formerly colonised by black people, they'd have been classed as racist by anti-racists. Though since blacks can't be racist (they don't “have the power”), then this statement can't be racist either. Nothing a black person says or does can be racist. This is according to the standards of the many and various anti-racist theorists and academics who exist today; some of whom will teach at Okundaye's Cambridge University.

Predictably, once the news spread outside of the Students' Union and the University itself, a spokesperson from the University said: “The College is looking into this matter and will respond appropriately.”

However, if blacks can be racist, then what can Cambridge University do about this? Jason Osamede Okundaye has done nothing wrong. That is, according to many theorists and academics at Cambridge University, he's done nothing wrong. He's black and therefore he can't be a racist. He's only a victim. Not a suspect or even a free agent. He's a black man. A man infantilised by anti-racist theory and anti-racist activists.

All PEOPLE are racist to one degree or another.

We are also all sexist, ageist, obesity-ist, short-ist, etc.

ALL of us carry with us a “first impression” image of other people that we do not know based on their appearance. This can even be slightly altered by the geographical location or event that causes us to see them for the first time.

But to say one race is racist is actually only exposing the racism of the one making the statement. It’s kinda funny.

Another crazy black.

What is the condition called when someone who has a chronic problem denies it and instead says others have that problem? Whatever that condition is called, the Lying Left has it in its acute stage.

You have to hope that at least the science programs at these top-tier schools are still sound, because for the past 50 years no prestigious university's humanities or social sciences programs have done anything except peddle radical politics and racial agitation masquerading as "scholarship."

Chances are, these institutions will eventually phase out math and science altogether because non-politicized, merit-based academic programs are "racist" and bad for minority self-esteem.

You’d think that he’d be happier at some university in Nigeria where he wouldn’t have to be surrounded by so many racist whites. What’s keeping him in Cambridge?

all white people are racist”.

I am white, but I don't believe in collectivism or determinism, like libtards do, so I am not racist.

Doesn’t that mean that the founders of Cambridge University were all racists?

Doesn’t that, in turn, mean that Cambridge University is a racist institution?

Doesn’t that, in turn, mean that Cambridge should be done away with, its buildings razed to the ground, and its name expunged from the history books?

Jason Osamede Okundayes is another prime example of a pseudo Intellectual Yet Idiot, wanna be!:

Our Governments, Universities/Colleges and many businesses/corporations are controlled and operated by the Intellectual Yet Idiots, who have been controlling our lives for decades. These Intellectual Yet Idiots control our media and most of DC and many states down to the county/city level.

Nassim Taleb Exposes The World’s “Intellectual-Yet-Idiot” Class!

What we have been seeing worldwide, from India to the UK to the US, is the rebellion against the inner circle of no-skin-in-the-game policymaking “clerks” and journalists-insiders, that class of paternalistic semi-intellectual experts with some Ivy league, Oxford-Cambridge, or similar label-driven education who are telling the rest of us 1) what to do, 2) what to eat, 3) how to speak, 4) how to think… and 5) who to vote for.

But the problem is the one-eyed following the blind: these self-described members of the “intelligenzia” can’t find a coconut in Coconut Island, meaning they aren’t intelligent enough to define intelligence and fall into circularities?—?, but their main skills is ability to pass exams written by people like them.

With psychology papers replicating less than 40%, dietary advice reversing after 30 years of fatphobia, macroeconomic analysis working worse than astrology, the appointment of Bernanke who was less than clueless of the risks, and pharmaceutical trials replicating at best only 1/3th of the time, people are perfectly entitled to rely on their own ancestral instinct and listen to their grandmothers (or Montaigne and such filtered classical knowledge) with a better track record than these policymaking goons.

Indeed one can see that these academico-bureaucrats wanting to run our lives aren’t even rigorous, whether in medical statistics or policymaking. They can’t tell science from scientism?—?in fact in their eyes scientism looks more scientific than real science. (For instance it is trivial to show the following: much of what the Cass-Sunstein-Richard Thaler types?—?those who want to “nudge” us into some behavior?—?much of what they call “rational” or “irrational” comes from their misunderstanding of probability theory and cosmetic use of first-order models.)

This is the voice of the American black. They smile to our face but hold us in contempt. And, as always, the bottom line is whatever they need to do to extract the absolute maximum in economic SWAG.

We were on the road to dialogue until that race baiting muslim pimp came into office. Then we rediscovered that no matter how much we placate spoiled children, it never gets better. Only worse.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. White boys B the biggest fools on earth.

Well, British in this case, but apparently theirs aren't any better behaved than ours.

The reason blacks treat whites with contempt is that they can get away with it. Nothing invites dominant behavior like fawning, subservient behavior. Decades of white liberal apologies have created a monster.

Projection, cognitive dissonance - usually both are symptoms of narcissism.

Cambridge, like all major universities, has two levels of academics: Real ones (STEM) and pretend ones (most others).

And, even the STEM departments have had small infections of fans of Idiocracy. Heck, even Hawkings has occasional bouts of idiocy when he strays from pure physics.

Yep, it just pushes more and more people, particularly young people, into our camp. They grow tired of hearing this BS
